First look at Wonder Woman and a film teaser from Batman v Superman revealed

Warner Bros. are certainly going all out it would seem for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice at this year’s San Diego Comic Con, as not only did they give us the first look at Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman (see image on the right, which you can click to enlarge), but they also showed the first footage from the movie in the form of a teaser. However in a event first, the company had paid for an extra 450 feet to be added to Hall H so that they could add screens to each side of the hall making the traditional screen into a wrap around “Super” screen that stretched down both sides of the hall.

This addition meant that construction on Hall H took about a week and the curtains that covered the extras screens took four people to open them. The teaser itself whipped the over 6,000 strong audience into a frenzy and what follows is a description of the teaser, so before you read on please note that the next paragraph contains SPOILERS, which includes a rumoured image (click to enlarge) taken during the teaser!!

“So, the teaser footage shows Batman in a suit of heavy bat-armor, standing on a roof in the pouring rain at night. His eyes glow solid white (take a moment to gasp and cheer at that, fans), and he pulls a tarp off the bat-signal on the roof and turns it on. Then, as the camera turns toward the sky, Superman is revealed floating in the air in the light of the bat-signal. He is furious, and his eyes begin glowing as his heat vision charges up to full power. Aaaaaand… cue the film logo.”

The teaser was introduced by the Batman v Superman director, Zack Snyder who was joined on the panel by cast members, Ben Affleck (Batman), Henry Cavill (Superman) and Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman). Whilst the footage appears to indicate a battle between the two titular characters, one cannot help but wonder (wink wink) if said battle leads to the characters developing a mutual respect for each other that in turn leads into the forming of the Justice League.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is slated for release in the US on May 6th 2016.
